Max Payne

Hello,

I just loaded Max Payne and started playing it, but it hangs up on shutdown. I have to shut the computer off to exit it, then it runs through the scandisk thing on startup - where can I start?

thanks,

hoemee

Hi hoemee,

Have you installed the latest Max Payne patch and are you using the latest nVidia Detonator drivers for you video card?

Hi Doc,

Yes, I am using the latest nvidia drivers, but have not loaded any patches for Max Payne. I will search and look for them.

Thanks

Thanks for the replies. I downloaded the latest patch and also browsed through the FAQs. I had to change the settings under multimedia properties to game compatible and now it works great.

Thanks again,

hoemee
